Dear CPSY students:

For those of you who want to keep current with the drastic rise in hate crimes against Asian Americans, please remember that Dr. Karen Suyemoto is speaking today at 12pm PST (webinar link sent in previous email) and you can watch a good 10-minute story about hate crimes in Oakland, CA that was featured on the PBS Newshour last night.

Thank you for continuing to reach out to your colleagues and their families most affected by these crimes, especially the increased fear to go out alone, travel, go to work, and more.

Krista



Asian American community battles surge in hate crimes stirred from COVID-19

with Stephanie Sy     March 16, 2021     OPB Newshour

As the U.S. continues its battle against COVID-19, it is also battling a rise in hate crimes against Asian Americans. A recent report found that hate crimes against Asian Americans in major U.S. cities surged by nearly 150 percent in 2020 —even as the number of overall hate crimes fell. Stephanie Sy looks at how the violence has marred one community, and how they are coming together in its wake.
